Industry: Information Technology and Services
Function: Information Technology

Company profile:
We’re not doctors. We are geeks who understand doctors.                               Been to the doctor lately? Ever thought it odd that the experience is almost exactly the same as it was 20 years ago? Isn’t it a bit odd that in this world of iPads and always-on Internet you still have to wait 30 minutes to see the doctor, at which point (s)he’ll write down your notes on (heaven forbid) paper? And what if you’re referred from one doctor to another and they need to access your old records? In a world where you can watch any listen to any song ever recorded in just a couple clicks on a computer that fits in your pocket, people shouldn't be dying because they were given medicine they were allergic to in the emergency room because the ER doctor didn’t have access to the patient’s medical records. We have done the seemingly impossible, an application that doesn’t change the doctors' workflow yet manages their patient records electronically. We’re all about doctor user experience (yes it’s very different from normal user experience, trust us). We’re funded, loved by doctors and having a blast! Want to get in early on something really, really big? We don’t discriminate. You can be an alien from outer space with a tubular green body, hemispherical head and no ears, if we like you, we’ll take care of your visas in Singapore, get you alien food, alien gadgets, nerf balls, cute frogs, and lemon tea. We’re a small company with a great culture that values curiosity as much as performance, a fantastic work environment (which you can contribute to!), health insurance, a competitive salary, and meaningful equity in the company. We’re located in the heart of town, Clarke quay! We’re surrounded by restaurants that challenge your taste buds every day, and…We’re a stone’s throw away from the best bars in town.If you want to change the world and help bring doctors and medical care for the average person into the 21st century come talk with us.
